Hi, |

I just stumbled over an article from SearchSecurity.com which was linked to |
4 |
in a heise newsticker posting that tries to analyze how fast distributions |
5 |
react to security vulnerabilities: |

Quick chart: |

Rank Distro Points/100 |
12 |
---- ------------------------- ---------- |
13 |
1. Ubuntu 76 |
14 |
2. Fedora Core 70 |
15 |
3. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 63 |
16 |
4. Debian GNU/Linux 61 |
17 |
5. Mandriva Linux 54 |

6. Gentoo Linux 39 |

7. Trustix Secure Linux 32 |
20 |
8. SUSE Linux Enterprise 32 |
21 |
9. Slackware Linux 30 |
22 |
|
23 |
Rank 6 out of 10 is not a great result -- at least we beat SUSE ;) |
24 |
|
25 |
Any comments or thoughts about this? |
26 |
Can we become better? |
27 |
Are we maybe better than the author pretends? |
28 |
Does the security team currently face serious problems that need to be |
29 |
solved, be it inside or outside the security team? |

I am just curious and would be glad to get some feedback :) |
